So changing the ip on the netgear router won't have any detrimental on the DD-WRT set up,or the VPN set up on the router ???, as i know nothing whatsoever about networking, and i don't want to bulgur up the routers main settings, as the guy who configured the router said,
" the router is no longer running netgear firmware, it runs dd-wrt firmware so netgear software like genie is not compatible "
so i really don't want to bugger anything up, as he would charge me to re-configuer the router, Cheers m8
